President of India’s message on the eve of Independence day of Vanuatu
The island nation is located in the South Pacific Ocean.
In a message to the President of the Republic of Vanuatu, Baldwin Lonsdale, the Indian President said, “On behalf of the Government, the people of India and on my own behalf, I extend warm greetings and felicitations to you and to the people of the Republic of Vanuatu on the occasion of your Independence Day.
It is matter of satisfaction that India and Pacific Island countries share a multi-faceted relationship that has been further strengthened through the successful 2nd Summit of the Forum for India-Pacific Islands Cooperation (FIPIC) held in India in August, 2015. We were honoured to receive H.E. Meltek Sato Kilman Livtuvnu, Prime Minister of Vanuatu in India for FIPIC Summit and valued his contribution to its success.
India and Vanuatu share a common desire to deepen our engagement in order to address common challenges. I firmly believe that in the near future, our joint developmental initiatives in the areas of renewable energy and information technology will help create a strong foundation for further strengthening this valued partnership.
I take this opportunity to convey to Your Excellency my best wishes for your good health and well-being – and for the progress and prosperity of the friendly people of Vanuatu.”
